Yesterday, I listened to my brother listen to "Beowulf," that ancient poem that's been adapted into several different movies/ storylines. While listening along and thinking about Grendal as a t-rex dinosaur haunting southern Scandinavia and Grendal's mother sounding like a water-loving dinosaur living in a lake, it got me thinking. My ancestry, as far as I could trace it back, goes all the way to Scandinavia via the Vikings. It made me wonder if any of my red-headed ancestors were dino hunters like Beowulf, if any of them did amazing feats like that in their homeland. I'll probably never know, but it was still an interesting thought, possibly having an ancestor like that.
